Paul, Apostle of Christ Movie Quotes

Mauritius Gallas If it were the only truth everyone would believe it.

Luke Not so. Christ, who is truth, rose from the dead, many do not believe.

Mauritius Gallas Lies, fabrications...

Paul If Christ had not risen from the dead, then our preaching is useless, and so is our faith.

Mauritius Gallas Oh, you have no doubts at all?

Paul Men do not die for things they doubt.

Paul Imagine yourself looking out at the vast sea before you. You reach down and put a hand into the water and you scoop it up towards you. Immediately the water starts leaking through your fingers until the hand is empty. That water is a man's life. From birth to death it is always slipping through our hands until it is gone, along with all that you hold dear in this world. And yet the Kingdom I speak of - that I live for - is like the rest of the water out in the sea. Man lives for that cup of water that slips through his fingers. Those that follow Jesus Christ live for that endless expanse of sea.

Mauritius Gallas What if, after all this, I still do not believe in your Christ?

Paul I wasn't trying to convince you.

[laughs]

Paul Listen to me. There is only a moment. It is not me. It is Christ himself that looks upon you and shatters your defenses and in that moment you will understand that you are completely known by God... and you are completely loved. I will pray that moment comes for you.

Luke It will be a moment of pain. But only a moment. Only a moment. And then we shall be home in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ forever. You see, in my heart, I felt that there should be some kind of retribution against the Romans for the crimes that they have committed. But there can be only one way. Remember as our Lord spoke from the cross. "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." He has also asked us to pray in the same way. So, let us pray.

Paul [a written letter, narrated as a voiceover as Paul is taken to the gallows and is beheaded] To Timothy, my dear son. Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. Do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord or of me, his prisoner. Rather, join with me in suffering for the Gospel. By the power of God, he has saved us and called us to a holy life. Not because of anything we have done, but because of his own purpose and grace. This is my Gospel, for which I am suffering even to the point of being chained like a criminal. But God's word is not chained. For I am already being poured out like a drink offering. The time of my departure has come. I have fought the good fight. I have finished the race. I have kept the faith. The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you all.

Paul I heard his final words even amongst the roar of the crowd. "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. Lord, do not hold this sin against them." Even in death, a final blasphemy on his lips. In that moment, I vowed to destroy all those that spoke of this Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah.

Priscilla Christ was clear when he said he was sending us out amongst the wolves.

Aquila He also told us to be as wise as serpents.

Priscilla And harmless as doves.

Luke This world doesn't know a thing about love.

Paul And so you would give up on the world when Christ did not give up on us?

Luke Why not?

Paul No!

Luke Why not?

Paul Love is the only way. Love that suffers long. Love that is kind, that does not envy, that is not proud. Love that does not dishonor, that does not seek for itself. Love that is not easily angered. Love that rejoices in truth. Love that never delights in evil. Love that protects, trusts, hopes, endures all things. That kind of love.

Mauritius Gallas You claim you serve a god who is above all other gods, and yet all I see before me is an old man in chains. Your life, a summary of beatings and filthy prison cells.

Paul I deserve worse, but... There is grace enough for everyone.

Mauritius Gallas To be rich, not poor. To be powerful, not weak. To have slaves and servants, not be one.

Paul It does not take an intelligent man to look around and know that the world is missing something.

Mauritius Gallas Do not question the greatness of Rome.

Luke And what of the love for a sick daughter? What does Rome offer her?

Mauritius Gallas [hits his foot on Luke's lower leg who falls, points his naked sword above Luke's face] Another word and I send you to whatever god you want. You're right, my daughter is dying. The gods do not answer me.

Paul There is another way.

Mauritius Gallas No. There is not. Your Christ solves nothing. Mindless sentimentality for the weakest and poorest to make their pathetic state livable until they are buried in the ground and forgotten. Tomorrow there are games at the circus. Take the Greek

[Luke]

Mauritius Gallas there, so he can die for the glory of my gods!

Luke Let peace be with you, for we live in the world, but we do not wage war as the world does. Peace begins with you, Cassius. Love is the only way.
